On May 30, 2023, a regular meeting of the Armenian-Russian joint working group on personnel training was held. During the meeting on a priority basis issues, related to the expansion of bilateral cooperation in training personnel in the nuclear field, were discussed. As a result of the discussion, a number of decisions were made both on the training in the Russian Federation of specialists in the field of nuclear energy for the needs of the Republic of Armenia, and on the process of NPP personnel retraining.

During the discussions the participants also emphasized the importance of enhancing the inter-university cooperation between Armenian and Russian universities in order to ensure a competitive qualification level of future specialists through the development of joint educational programs.
